In-host population dynamics of <i>M. tuberculosis</i> during treatment failure

2019-08-06

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Background</h4> Tuberculosis (TB) is a leading cause of death globally from an infectious agent. Understanding the population dynamics of TB’s causative agent Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) in-host is vital for understanding the efficacy of antibiotic treatment. Here we use longitudinally collected clinical Mtb isolates that underwent Whole-Genome Sequencing (WGS) from the sputa of 307 s...
